Bryan received an official email from Tom Colicchio penalizing us for going over time last week. His punishment? He is only allowed to speak 30 words for the entire first segment of the show.This week on Pod Chef, Jamal has to put the team on his back while Bryan sits in silence. We deal with the ramifications of Tom's strict podcasting rules, Jamal gives his official review of "America's Culinary Cup," and then we finally get down to business. We are breaking down Bravo's Top Chef Season 23, Episode 3 ("True Colors"), dissecting the challenges, and predicting who is going home next.⏱️ EPISODE MENU00:00 - Intro & Bryan reads Tom Colicchio's punishing email08:03 - Jamal’s "America’s Culinary Cup" Review (Solo carry)14:46 - Chef’s I’ve Prepared For You23:23 - Top Chef S23E03 Recap starts: "True Colors" breakdown45:00 - Bryan’s official Top Chef Prediction👇 SUPPORT THE SHOW 👇 If you laughed, hit that Subscribe button so you never miss a Monday drop! ⭐ Rate us 5 stars on Spotify and Apple Podcasts, and let us know what you had for dinner last night in the review!
